No report was available, yesterday

ton. -
The machine gun company, composed
of four officers and 53 enlisted men,
will be partially recruited from the
employes of the Portalnd Railway
Light & Power Company and parti
cularly from men who are employed in
the machine shops or as motormen and
who are experienced in the handling of
machinery.
The captain of this company has not
yet been selected. Other officers, how
ever, will be: First Lieutenant A. A.
Alleni who served In the British artil
lery in the Boer War; Senior Second
Lieutenant R. C Bishop, who served as
First Lieutenant of the Texas Light
Artillery, and who has-been several
years in Mexico, and Junior Second
Lieutenant A. W. Worthen, who has a
six years' , creditable National Guard
rerord In this state.
This organization is being perfected
with the approval of F. S. Griffith,
president of the Portland Railway,
Light i Power Company.
Salem pastor Chaplain.
After considering about 15 applica
tions for the position of chaplain of
the. regiment, Rjf. James Elvin. of
Haleni. was selected for the post. He is
now serving his second year as pastor
of, the Congregational jhurch at Salem
and is in charge of the relief work for
Company M, Third Infantry, now at the
front.
Requisitions for arms, uniforms and
equipment now are being prepared for
a lull regimental organization and will
be completed by the middle of the
week. The organization will be merely
tentative.
It has been suggested by some of
the company commanders that they im
mediately proceed with drilling, but
this has been discouraged because of
the difficulty of enforcing attendance
' and maintaining disclipine.
Married men are being discouraged
from volunteering as enlisted men, as
tholr , pay would not be sufficient to
support their families and there seem
to be enough single men to recruit up
the regiment.

HAZARDOUS TRAIL TAKEN
Xew York Women Scorn Presence of
Man on Auto Trip" Across Conti
nent In Campaign to Help Ex
tend Ballot to Their Sisters.
"The fate of National suffrage rests
with the women of the West," says Mrs.
Alice Snitger Burke, of N ew York.
That Is one reason why she and her co
worker. Miss Nell Richardson, also of
New, York.. came dashing Into Portland
early yesterday morning in a saucy
little chrome yellow motorcar, bedecked
with the "keys" of the various cities
they have visited and "Votes for Wom
en" banners.
Mrs. Burke and Miss Richardson, have
made a hazardous auto triD from New
York City through the South and Cali
fornia to Portland to spread, the doc
trine of suffrage They are heart and
soul In the work and- have had a risky
nut eventful trip, in which they have
traveled through every border state
in America. They will return bv auto
and will cover 57 states before the
trip is ended.
Sooth Not Lost to C'uh,
"The idea that the South is bitter
against suffrage Is all wrong," said
Mrs. Burke. "The Southern men will
give their women th ballot any time
they want It." ,
In the East," salJ Mrs. Burke, "it's
harder. We have labor conditions.
politics and corruption to contend with.
res, the Eastern women, must look to
the West. There rests the hope of Na
tional suffrag."
Although Miss Richardson is also a
suffrage- speaker, she confines her
opinions to the platform and bubbles
about the trip. She laughs over the
times that they have lain -under the
car on the hot desert sands of Texas
and New Mexico and adjusted bolts and
screws. No, indeed; she didn't see any
need of a man along to spoil the trip.
J o took ac me gay little car that has
made the -trip, no one would suppose
there was much in it besides the two
suffrage workers. But the truth is that
when they began their trip they
stacked in everything they might need.
A tiny sewing machine, a typewriter.
electric iron, kodak, evening gowns,
ten shirtwaists, four dinner and after
noon dresses, lingerie, stockings,
sweaters, blankets and, lots of other
things are carried.
To the four winds goes the super-
stition that "a black cat Is a hoodoo.1
Their's isn't. For a jet-black cat.
Saxon, their mascot, has ridden from
New York to Portland on top of the
seat.
Sometimes when their car had sunk
to hubs in the sand In the deserts they
walked to nearby town for assist
ance, but they have put on tires and
fixed their car over and over again.
"Once in New Mexico," said Miss
Richardson, "wo were stuck Just
couldn't move. It was 8 o'clock and
night was falling. We took the re
volver, our water bag and the cat and
waiKea five miles to town.
That was only one of their experi
ences, but they are happy over them.
They will remain in Portland until
Tuesday morning and then go to Se
attle and Bast by way of Montana. A
rather extensive campaign of South
Dakota will be made; then they will go
Last to New York again.
The suffrage work is quite new to
Miss Richardson, but Mrs. Burke has
been at it for the past six years. For
165 consecutive days she spoke every
night in New York City from 8 until
12, later touring the state.- Both Miss
Richardson and Mrs. Burke say that
the doctrine of votes for women is
winning favor everywhere.
"Both. men and women Tiave ceased
to regard Jt as 'new-fangled.' and most
of them regard it as necessary, says
Mrs. Burke. "If only some of you
Western, women would go back and
speak and show some of the Kastern
men that suffragettes are not mon
strosities, the cause would progress
faster.

TRADE-MARK
THE "Age of Rubber" is in sight !
Hard upon the "Age of Steel,"
comes this new Epoch - in World
' History.
As the Forest3 went down before the
Woodman's Axe, Steel rose up to take the
place of Wood, with a huge additional field
of its own.
As the Ranch, and open Cattle Ranges,
yield to the Farm, bo the Source of Supply for
Leather recedes, while the population, which
must wear Shoes, increases.
Here steps in RUBBER, with a fast
growing production, on Plantations, ready to
replace Leather, in the near future, at a
lower cost, for better service, plus a thou
sand uses of its own.
When Raw Rubber reaches that level of
Cost which the huge expansion of Rubber
Plantations predicates, a myriad uses will be
added to those inr which the present relatively
limited supply is now consumed.
Because, Rubber is such an adaptable
-material that it is capable of not only substi
tuting the most important of Failing Mater
ials, which (like' Leather) are disastrously
lessening in production but, it already enters
into scores of forms that touch the life of every
person today. , . v

' The significant feature of above is the
enormously increased growth of Cultivated
Rubber, on Plantations.
That -is what lifts the Rubber Industry
out of the hard-bound limitations of the
Leather-working Industry, and other In
dustries dependent upon a receding supply
of Raw Material for an increasing Population.
The World should be vastly interested in'
a Sound, Dependable, and Scientific expansion
of the RUBBER Industry. .

IT is the wide comprehension of
Rubber FUTURES which makes
the B. F. Goodrich Co. so CAREFUL
that the Symbol of the House, (that Goodrich
Trade-Mark " which i3 pictured at top of this
column) shall never be placed on an unworthy
Rubber-product.
It 13 that Trade-Mark (of the House of
Goodrich), which protects the Purchaser of
Rubber-Goods, when he looks for it on any
Rubber-Article, and recognizes it as the SIG
NATURE and BOND of the 47 -year -old
Concern which here writes itself down as
keenly alive to the importance.of TOMORROW,
in the Rubber field.
It is the clear Vision of that great 'Tomor
row" which prompts the B. F. Goodrich Co.
to (for instance) price its TIRES so far
BELOW figures which the QUALITY of these
Tires could command when their PERFORM
ANCE is compared with that of otiier Tires
listed at 15yfc to 50yt higher prices.
WILL you, from this "Spoti
light " on Goodrich Aims and
Ideals, understand that Good
rich Tires are PURPOSELY made the BEST
Fabric Tires that the largest Rubber Factory
in the World can produce at ANY price ?
i Will you realize, from it, that when you
pay more than the Goodrich Fair-List prices
here quoted, for ANY Fabric Tire, you are
NOT getting "BETTER" Tires?
Will you assist in making that great "To
morrow" of the "Rubber Age" MORE helpful
to all Humanity, by encouraging NOW the
fair and MODERATE prices for Tires, and
Rubber Goods, that Goodrich "sets the pace'
on today?
